Worst Week Ever

(Almost) noting guarantees the Worst Week Ever quicker than school schootings if you still go to school.

1. From the Real Racism Files: black students in Tuscaloosa, Alabama moved to lower performing schools after complaints that schools were overcrowded.
2. Blackwater and their "shoot anything that moves, shoot everything else later" philosophy. That, and the fact that Order No. 17 gives protection to Blackwater's "troops," making them immune to Iraqi law, thus free to shoot all the civilians they want.
3. Andy Gates, a disabled man who has flown on his own dozens of times, is not allowed to travel alone on a U.S. Airways plane. The seas of airplane customer revolution is stirring...
4. The Senate rejects a bill that would give soldiers as much time at home as they get overseas. Because allowing them time with their family after years and years thousands of miles away from home in an area where friend is foe and the streets themselves are littered with bombs would just be Anti-American.
5. Tazers and the police that have way too much fun with them.
